The State Working Committee (SWC) of the Abia State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) recently paid a courtesy visit to the immediate past governor of Abia State, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu at his residence in Umuobiakwa, Obingwa Local Government Area.
Dr. Ikpeazu, known for his strong connection to the grassroots, extended invitations to members of the Abia State House of Assembly from Abia South to join him during the visit. Among those present were Hon. Solomon Akpulonu, Hon. Goddy Adiele, Hon. Chijioke Urakpa, Hon. Erondu Uchenna Erondu, and Hon. Aaron Uzodike.
The gathering also included prominent party leaders and officials from Abia South. These comprised Enyinnaya Appolos, the Abia South Zonal Chairman; the six LGA chairmen from the zone, along with their principal officers; and five selected stakeholders from each of the six LGAs—Obingwa, Aba North, Aba South, Ugwunagbo, Ukwa West, and Ukwa East.
During the meeting, Dr. Ikpeazu reaffirmed his support for the party under the leadership of Elder Abraham Amah, the State PDP Chairman. He called on party leaders at all levels to intensify efforts toward strengthening the party’s presence in the state, emphasizing the need for unity and strategic planning to ensure the PDP’s return to power in Abia by 2027.
In his remarks, Elder Abraham Amah reassured party faithful of the SWC’s commitment to restoring the PDP to its former glory. He noted that recent events and reactions from those in government and other opposition parties in Abia signal progress and affirm that the party is on the right path. “We are resolute in our mission to rebuild, unite, and reclaim Abia State. The PDP remains the strongest platform for delivering sustainable development and good governance to the people,” Amah stated.
The visit underscored the commitment of the PDP’s leadership and stakeholders to revitalizing the party’s structures in the state while leveraging the experience and influence of seasoned leaders like Dr. Ikpeazu. Party members expressed optimism that the strategic collaboration between the SWC and grassroots leaders would yield positive results in the drive to reclaim the state by 2027.
